Approved 6-0.
Glacier Peaks Inn — 1550 Hwy 93 N; new freestanding sign replacing existing non -conforming
sign. Internally lit. Portico is not changing. Will be in landscaped area. Bill moved to approve;
Janet seconded. Approved 6-0.
Montana Liquor — 2210 Hwy 93 S; new freestanding sign replacing existing sign. Essentially
same location. Will extend landscaping and curb off under the sign. Will be back a bit further
than in the photo. Internally lit. Committee feels the colors are a bit stark — change the
background? Ivory on lower part? Bill moved to approve with the condition that the lower part
change to ivory; Russ seconded. Some feeling that the sign is not particularly graceful. John
moved to amend to change all of the background to ivory to make it less stark. Motion to
amend failed for lack of a second. On the main motion, the signage was approved with the
condition that the background on the lower part change to ivory. Approved 5-1.
